"So tell me..." Says Aliyah.
We're laying in bed together, and all I can think is that her arms are the best place to be in the entire galaxy.
"Yeah?" I ask.
"When did you realize that you liked me?"
I smile into the darkness. I remember the moment all too vividly.
"Well... It was on that trip. Remember, the overnight one? So you were dancing in the aisle, music blasting, and I realized..."
I pause, a blush creeping over my face, exeptionally glad that she cant see, when she says,"That I'm extremely sexy when I dance?"
I can practically hear her grinning.
"Well, yeah." I admit, "and then you paused and turned to me and asked if I had a song preference."
Aliyah laughs and kisses my forehead. "Yeah, I remember. You asked if i had that song by P!NK, right?"
"Yeah." I smile at the memory, turning over to bury my face in her chest.
"April, are you tired?" Aliyah asks.
I make a noise somewhere between a 'yes' and a muffled groan.
"Because you know it's only ten o clock."
I shrug, which feels strange laying down. Lifting my head up slightly, I say, "well, we could probably both use the extra sleep, and you've tired me out."
Aliyah chuckles and draws the blanket over us. "Okay then. Good night sweetie."
"Goodnight Aliyah," I say, laying my head back down. I close my eyes and drift off to sleep in the most comfortable place in the world.
